Report suggests geothermal energy can grow six-fold and produce 67 GW by 2030
The global renewable energy share can reach and exceed 30 per cent by 2030 at no extra cost, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) says in a report, “REmap 2030 (PDF),” that was published Monday.The study maps out a pathway for doubling the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix based on the technologies that are available today. Energy efficiency and improved energy access can advance the share of renewables in the global energy mix up to 36 per cent, according to the new report.
The reports measures the current capacity of geothermal energy as 11 GW and suggests that this should increase to 25 GW by 2020 and 67 GW by 2030.
